Here is this week's song: The Lost Years https://52tracksblog.com/2016/06/09/track-23-the-lost-years/All RTs except an electric rhythm guitar and electric lead guitar. THE LOST YEARS I didn’t wander out in the desert Wasn’t locked in a padded room Didn’t find myself in the gutter Howling at the moon But seven years came and went With nothing much to show At the time I couldn’t see Now I’ve come to know Refrain: All and all Those were the lost years All and all Those were the lost years I can see I lost perspective Trying to find the one best way Nothing ever measured up I had no more dreams in play I dodged the toughest questions Life was a roundabout And when the dust had settled down Fear was clutching doubt Refrain And I can’t get ‘em back No, I can’t get ‘em back So I guess I’ll just say “Adios” And what about the future? Well, I haven’t been advised So I take it day by day With a lot more compromise I’m living with the knowledge That it’s easy to backslide And slip across that shadow line Without breaking stride Refrain Copyright 2016 Fred Grittner All Rights Reserved

Really nice one Fred!! One of my faves by you. The music is great-works perfectly with the theme of cautious optimism. Really enjoyed this one, and I'm glad you emerged from the other side. Life can be very tricky. Take care. Greg

"I’m living with the knowledge That it’s easy to backslide And slip across that shadow line Without breaking stride"
Powerful writing, Fred. Excellent arrangement and mix. Just what this needs. I like an introspective song that is presented in a "on the bright side" package (music). Most writers never do that.
This works on every level. An important message, well told.

floyd Thanks, Floyd. Yes, sometimes I like to go against the grain of the lyrics with contrasting music. Fred

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
